2022 Summit: Policy Pitch

March 12, 2022 Woodward High School

New City Council, new ideas:   
Policy Pitch at the 2022 Neighborhood Summit
Deadline to submit ideas: Monday Feb 28

What’s a “Policy Pitch”?

Simply, an idea that is a solution for a problem or an issue that could be potentially turned into a City Policy
OR
An idea for an initiative that could be undertaken

Example:  We should tax all yellow cars in order to bring in revenue for creating more street calming actions.  (Yes, that’s silly, we have nothing against yellow cars)

Example:  Liz Keating’s Litter/Blight Hackathon which is bringing together the City departments, organizations and agencies who work on these problems, corporate partners, and community members to collectively attack the problem and find some creative solutions

Submit your ideas below and we will bring them to the City Committees at the Summit to consider.  

Each Committee will have it’s own location at the Summit and will review policy ideas to take back to Committee and work on
